Printing in the Libraries now requires your Stanford ID Card or a Stanford Printing Card. Printing Cards are available at the circulation/loan desks at any Stanford Libraries location. You will need to add funds to your card using a debit or credit card prior to printing.

No Stanford ID: obtain a Stanford Printing Card from the circulation/load desk and go to the Stanford Print/Copy Credits page to add funds to the card. A one-time $5 card fee will be added to new Printing Card during the first transaction.

NOTE: Cash is not accepted for printing and copying.

Black & white print and copy will be $0.12 per printed side of page. If you print or copy a two sided document (duplex) you will be charged $0.24.

Color print and copy will be $0.16 per printed side of page. If you print or copy a two sided document (duplex) you will be charged $0.

The print/copy machines also function as scanners. There is no cost for scanning.You can scan and copy microfilm to your flash drive, or email to yourself using a web-based email account.

From the Print window, choose SecurePrint-IDauth for the printer.

Click Print. A pop-up window will appear.

Enter your 9-digit Stanford ID number or Stanford Printing card number (located on the front of the card).

Click Ok/Close to print.

Print job(s) will be sent to the print server and will be available to access at any printer/copier in the Libraries or in student computing areas across campus.

You will only be able to check out books from Green or our overflow libraries (SAL libraries).

For books listed as being in Green Library Stacks, use the Find It button on the Searchworks record. There are also wallet-sized shelving location guides at the IC desk that you can take with you.

Sometimes the item location will be "SAL". SAL items may be paged to Green Library by clicking on the "Request" link.

To check out a book, take it to the Loan Desk in Green East and fill out a slip. Counselors with borrowing privileges will check the book out for you at the end of the day. Do not check out government documents.

Please leave government documents on the tables set up for you in the West Basement so that all may use them.
